Shops all over Key West sell "Cuban cigars," however they are typically made domestically because it is still illegal to buy and sell Cuban cigars in the United States. Most cigars in the Keys are made with Cuban tobacco from plants that were grown in other parts of Latin America. They might not be "authentic" but they are as close as you can get without breaking the law. Although many of the cigar factories are long gone, there are plenty of places to buy cigars and a number of smoke shops to enjoy them in. Two blocks west of Green Street is often referred to as "Cigar Alley," but stores are scattered all over the city including Cork and Stogie, which partnered with the Original Key West Cigar Factory two years ago. The wine list includes international bottles from New Zealand, Russia, South Africa, Argentina, and more. A warm ambiance, selection of fine wines, and friendly staff are a winning combination at this "Southernmost Cigar Bar." Be sure to check their website for coupons.
